Super Orchard

Chapter 254 Completion of the new house
That night, several policemen who had come to Jinquan Orchard before and Luo Zhiqiang came to the gate of the orchard again. Shen Yangguang greeted them as soon as he heard the news, and welcomed them to the office to sit down.

The leader in charge of this arrest operation enthusiastically held Shen Yangguang's hand, repeatedly praised the young man for being good, and Shen Yangguang hurriedly said a few words of humility.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged policeman standing behind the leader also stood up, handed Shen Yangguang a pennant and an envelope, and said, "This is a reward from the bureau."

The envelopes were filled with hundred-yuan bills. Shen Yangguang didn't count them carefully, and estimated that it was only 800 yuan. He really didn't care about this amount of money, but he was still very happy to accept it.

As for this pennant, Shen Yangguang was very pleasantly surprised. The quality of the bright red cloth was very good, and the eight characters "Cooperation between the police and the people to create harmony" were written on it.

He has never received a silk banner since he grew up, and he has only heard of ordinary people sending silk banners outside before, but he has never heard of the public security bureau sending silk banners to ordinary people.

Several people exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then they were ready to go back. Shen Yangguang also got up and sent them out of the orchard gate again. Before leaving, Luo Zhiqiang hit Shen Yangguang's chest with his fist and said: "Dude, you did a good job. When are you free? I'll buy you a drink."

For Luo Zhiqiang, an alcoholic, Shen Yangguang has always had a headache. Every time he drank, he would die, and said: "Didn't Xiaowei stipulate how much you should drink when you drink? How dare you drink by yourself?"

Luo Zhiqiang rubbed his head in embarrassment and said: "Well, isn't this time a meritorious service? It should be celebrated. I should apply to Xiaowei in advance. A girl like Xiaowei will definitely agree."

After sending everyone away, Shen Yangguang returned to the office and hung up the freshly baked pennant on the side wall. Looking at the eight gilded characters on the fiery red fabric, Shen Yangguang suddenly fell into deep thought.

The reason why dog ​​races are so popular in some villages is that in the final analysis, there is a lack of entertainment activities in every village. When such a gang came by chance, everyone basically went there with the intention of watching the fun.

Just like in the Shili Baxiang near Jinquan Village, whenever people who work outside during the holidays go home, they often see scenes of playing cards and mahjong everywhere, and [-] to [-]% of the games are full of prizes. There is no other reason, it is precisely because of the lack of entertainment activities, why don't you go to chat, spank and bask in the sun if you don't play cards?That's what old men and old ladies do, but now more and more old men and old ladies are also playing cards.

Therefore, there is such a new activity near the village, and many people will go to see it. After arriving at the scene, the atmosphere is driven by organized gangs, and some people make a lot of money easily, so many people who originally People who watched the excitement also joined in.

In this way, they fell into the trap of organizing gangs, and all the bets were ultimately won by the banker. For those who bet with money, although some people lost money and some made money, they still lost money overall.

All the dog gambling gangs were arrested and brought to justice this time, but next time there is no guarantee that there will be a cockfight against pigs and buffaloes, which will also attract the attention of the villagers and leave the villagers with low incomes empty pockets.

Shen Yangguang believes that even if he knows so many people in Jinquan Village, most of them are not good at gambling, but if such a gang comes to the village, most of them will still go to watch curiously.

This has nothing to do with personal character. It is because Jinquan Village does not have any entertainment activities. Thinking of this, Shen Yangguang began to think about some entertainment facilities in the village. With these facilities, not only can enrich everyone's spiritual life , It will also reduce unnecessary troubles in the village.

Singing, dancing, exercising, fitness, etc. After thinking about it for a while, Shen Yangguang felt that it was not suitable. Seeing that it was getting late, he returned to the dormitory to prepare for bed. As for these entertainment activities, we can wait until later.

Unknowingly, the time has come to July, and Jinquan Village has also begun to enter midsummer. The scorching sun is scorching the earth, bringing a scorching heat wave, and the temperature during the day is approaching the cities in the south.

At this time, it has been three months since Shen Yangguang’s family built a new house. In Jinquan Village, the construction team originally relied on the local contractors. If there is no continuous rain, the building will be built in three months. , but also tightly is the frame of an empty house.

The house of Shen Yangguang's family was built by the construction team of a large company brought by Zeng Guang. Not only was the construction more formal, but also a large number of people participated in the work. Therefore, in three months, not only the frame of the house was built, but even the The doors and windows are almost done, and it only needs to be renovated to move in, which is much faster.

According to the tradition of Jinquan Village, when each new house is completed, there is a link to be carried out, which is called "beam raising".

In the past, the houses built here in Jinquan Village were all pointed tile-roofed houses, and there was a large beam in the middle to support the entire roof. This large beam is particularly important, both in terms of texture and weight. There is also an idiom called "talent of pillars and beams", in which "pillars" and "beams" are the supporting structures of houses.

The original meaning of "lifting the beam" is to put the beam on the roof. In the era when there were no cranes, lifting the beam weighing hundreds of kilograms was almost the most difficult and complicated step in the whole house construction.At the same time, after the girder reaches the roof, it indicates that the construction of the house will start to be capped.

With these two reasons, one can imagine the importance of the link of "beam erecting". In Jinquan Village, the "beam erection" of a new house is equivalent to the completion ceremony of the new house. The owner of the house needs to treat guests. Celebrating with dinner.

In recent years, the few houses built in the village are almost two-story buildings or bungalows, and the girders on the pointed ridges are no longer needed. However, this traditional celebration is still preserved. Whether the house has a flat roof or a pointed roof, it must be "uppered."

Shen Yangguang's house is no exception, but he doesn't know much about these traditional customs, so he called his parents and Shen's father and Shen mother were very happy to hear that Shen Yangguang really built the house. Expenses are nothing to Shen Yangguang today, but they mean a lot.

In the eyes of parents, they have always hoped that their children and grandchildren will start a family and start a business. Now there is no need to say more about starting a family. As for starting a family, I am very satisfied with my future daughter-in-law during the Chinese New Year. Now I have built a new house. That's it.
